Kobe Plans To Have A Little Talk With Bynum Before Game 6

DENVER (CBS) -KCAL 9’s and Lakers play-by-play radio announcer John Ireland spoke to Kobe Bryant after the Los Angeles Lakers arrived to their Denver hotel for Game 6 on Thursday.

The last time the Lakers faced the Nuggets in a game 6, Kobe dominated with 35 points and LA closed-out the Nuggets 119-92 to head to the 2009 NBA Finals.

“We have to execute extremely well. The biggest thing for us defensively is to get back on transition and not doing anything offensively that is really going to put us in a predicament.”

Ireland then asked him about the criticism Andrew Bynum got for saying close-out games are the easiest, “I plan to talk to him a little bit tomorrow and about certain things he needs to adjust. It’s Game 6.”
